West Bay Cottage is a fantastic holiday home in the heart of one of the most sought after villages in Dorset. The Grade II listed cottage is within walking distance of both West Bay's beaches and the harbour, as well as pubs, restaurants and cafes. West Bay Cottage can sleep up to four people in two bedrooms, and it is as popular with couples as it is with small families and friends.
You could not find a better location to stay while exploring Dorset and the Jurassic Coastline than West Bay. Smaller than neighbouring Bridport, which is a mile and a half inland, its two beautiful beaches - East Beach and West Beach - are a mix of fine shingle and sand. East Beach stretches towards Chesil Beach and Portland Bill, with an enormous cliff that played a dramatic (if silent) role in the BBC series, Broadchurch. West Beach's sheltered location makes it a favourite for swimming, especially with those with younger children. The harbour and marina are always busy, especially in summer, and if you fancy a different water view then hire a boat and take a picnic lunch along the River Brit. West Bay has two piers and lots of places to eat and drink.
The nearby town of Bridport is five minutes by car or 25-minutes on foot via an old railway line and past a brewery, providing everything you need for a relaxed self-catering holiday in Dorset. A thriving market runs every Wednesday and Saturday, and there is also a good variety of high street shops and independent retailers. The stylish art-deco cinema has a full programme of films and live entertainment, and the town also has a museum and lots of places to eat and drink. Further shops and amenities are available 10-miles away in the resort town of Lyme Regis, while Weymouth is around 35-minutes in the car.
West Dorset is a great place for a holiday, somewhere you can breathe in the fresh sea air and breath out the stress of your busy day-to-day life. The Jurassic Coastline is a World Heritage Site where adults and children alike can unleash their inner Famous Five and enjoy adventures of their own making. Hunt for fossils, try crabbing along the harbour walls and stride along the cliff-top footpaths. Visitors can enjoy country walks, fishing, sailing and surfboarding, as well as visits to attractions such as Hardy's Cottage, Abbotsbury Swannery, the Jurassic Skyline and the Sealife Adventure Park.
West Bay Cottage provides a warm welcome in any season, offering guests a comfortable place to stay while discovering the delights of West Dorset.
